Here’s something else you should most definitely look into as well if you’re on the lookout for a new clutch, and since these are also seasonal, best do it soon before they run out. Yes, quite literally too, since they are from Louis Vuitton’s ‘Race’ collection that’s from Cruise 2017. Well-sized (they are 26 cm across) with a wider base that allows for more of your personals, the price is pretty good too, coming in at just SGD770 a pop.

Made of printed canvas and lined with Microfiber, you’ll also find a patch pocket on the inside, which is good for cash or cards for days when you need to just grab and go.

Here’s your quick first look at Chanel’s upcoming cha-cha-cha Cruise 2017collection, inspired by Cuba and staged in Havana sometime in May this year. And with just months before the collection hits our sunny shores, a preview is definitely in order. So what’s up first? Well, the accessories, of course. Besides the usual range of jewellery ranging from bracelets to earrings and even pearl-festooned necklaces, you’ll also see lots and lots of brooches inspired by the tropical iconography of the Caribbean.

In other words, brooches in the form of parrots, brooches in the form of palm trees, hey, there’s even a pineapple-shaped brooch that comes adorned with faux pearls, some of which you’ll see above.

One of the key pieces (or at least to me anyway) is this stunning cuff. Swathed in khaki green canvas and covered with more pins, it’s definitely a statement piece of jewellery, filled with fun tropical nuances including an avocado with a CC logo on it.

Last but not least, here’s how a typical pearl necklace from the season will look like, decorated with multi-coloured daisies in the most tropical of summer hues. More updates to come, including bags and SLGs, I promise, so do stay tuned!

A new ad campaign has arrived, which gives a sneak peak on the new bags introduced for the Cruise 2017 Collection. So what do we see?

Well, all new bags that have been recently introduced are back with new decoration, quilting and hardware. We can feel that Gucci has put a lot of love designing these accessories.

The new Gucci GG Marmont Shoulder Bag is made with new Cubic pattern and studs, the Gucci Sylvie Signature Bag in our favorite baby blue shade and printed with summer flowers. Now carry these when entering the rainy and snowy seasons, it will put some smiles on people’s faces – positive fashion!

For now, just enjoy the images. If you are seeking for the details, don’t worry; we will feature them one by one later on. We will sip some thee and coffee and shit shat all about bags until we get fed up. Uhh, can we get fed up of bags? Nahhh…

If there’s one thing certain when it comes to the Dior Bag Collection, it is that this luxurious French brand never fails to create one master piece after the other. And this time around with the Dior Cruise 2017 Bag Collection, it made another debut bag that is sure to take the fashion world with a big bang. Ladies, come take a look at the new design of the Lily Bag.

Taking its cue from the bowling bag shape, but a better and redefined version, the Lily Bag is the next best thing to own. Its name took its inspiration from the lily-of-the-valley flower, one of Monsieur Dior’s lucky charms.

The Lily Bag can be dubbed as an accessory of fresh femininity. Women who are always on the go will absolutely fall in love with it as it can be worn over the hands or over the shoulder.

For the 2017 Lily Bag version, we are seeing changes and these are for the better. It comes in a single color grey and it has a new and large signature tag hanging on it. What do you think about this bag, ladies?

I know what you are thinking. Why is Bagaholicboy posting something that will traditionally only be available in late December/early January since it is from theCruise 2017 collection? For starters, I’m loving loving loving loving loving (yes, that means love infinity) this bag so so so so so much (yes, you get the idea). The other reason? As far as Gucci is concerned, selected pieces from this collection will be available in Singapore from October 2016, which also means I better start prepping you all on the must-buys from this season.

First making its runway debut in London, there isn’t exactly an official name yet so I’m just calling it the Coral Snake Messenger for now.

So why do I love it so? Well, here are the reasons. For starters, nothing can beat the amazingly detailed red coral snake on the front of the bag, which almost looks like it was painted on by hand. Well, it’s printed actually, and on a grain leather body no less, which is another big plus for me. Why? Grained leather means it’s naturally hardier and will stand up to scratches better, so it’s something I almost always look for first in any bag. Because I can be a klutz like that.

Measuring 29 cm by 19 cm by 11 cm, I also adore its zip-around opening, and the top handle, but the bit that gets me falling hardest has got to be that web sling in blue/red/white that’s just freaking gorgeous. Part of the womens collection, I’ll have no qualms buying it and using it as my own ‘small days’ bag, which should also double-up nicely as a camera bag for my mini DSLR. Not that I own one of those yet, but priorities, right?

Priced at SGD2350 in Singapore, please march down to Gucci soonest and put yourself on the wait list because I have a feeling once they come in they’ll slither right out.

Oh yes, I know what you mean. It’s like going to a restaurant and when the main dish has just been served, they throw a dessert card in your face. Ouch! But that’s the way it works in the fashion world, nothing to do about it.

Please meet the Louis Vuitton Petite Malle Bag from the Cruise 2015 Collection, the evolution version of the Petite Malle Bag from the Fall Winter 2014 Collection. And oh boy, how they altered the design.

The original Petite Malle Shoulder Bag was made to mirror the classic trunks, which is lovely. But the new Petite Malle from the Cruise 2015 is nothing like that. I mean, it still got the iconic S-Lock, but the body has been totally modernized. It’s like a cosmetic box, but a more luxurious version.

While the original version comes with a strap, the latest version is beautified with removable chain straps. It can be changed into a clutch bag anytime, to help you go through the nights, with glam.

Finished with Epi Leather, it’s a true luxury item, make it a part of your collection. This is the first-look, meaning the prices and sizes has not been published yet. More information will follow soon.
